I’ve always heard that Democrats in America would be considered a “right leaning” party in Europe, however I’ve wondered about someone who considers themselves progressive, where they would line up on the spectrum in Europe.
For example I want:
- Universal Healthcare
- UBI
- Taxation of the rich
- Marriage and general equality for LGBTQ+ persons
- Better public transport and corresponding social services for all people
Is there something I’m missing in my views, or is that generally what left leaning progressives are looking for in Europe?
Europe is neither a country nor a single culture. The political spectrum isn’t the same between Portugal, Sweden, and Poland. Different histories lead to different culture and politics
